When you think designer footwear from Italy the one name that is sure to be at the top of the list is Salvatore Ferragamo. The famous fashion house is considered to be the " shoemaker to the stars ". The styles of their shoes transcend time. They still make the ever classic bowed ballet slipper emblazoned with the famous Ferragamo signature. The same goes for their classic pumps. What are even more interesting are their fabulous vintage shoe designs as we see pictured in this article.

As inventive as ever, the fashion house has launched an online museum. There are pictures, vintage film clips and shoe design models. Artists can download the shoe models and redesign them. The designs can be forwarded to be judged by a panel of experts that will select a winner every 3 months.

Vistors can also order real tickets to the Florence based museum. So for any would- be shoe designers this is a fun opportunity to see whay you've got. Go to www.museoferragamo.com . The Ferragamo line includes much more then just shoes. Recently their stunning ad campaign received a lot of attention for layout, color and design. The look for the campaign was effortless elegance paired with opulent fabrics and accessories. Who can forget Claudia Schiffer modeling beautiful scarves by Ferragamo.

The House of Ferragamo still seems to be going strong after all these years. This says a lot about classic style over whimsical trends.
